Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCAREWT_ALL (M42A_x) indicates whether the respondent was weighed at least once during antenatal care.

ANCAREWT_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREWT_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREWT_02, ANCAREWT_03, ANCAREWT_04, ANCAREWT_05, and ANCAREWT_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCAREWT_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.

For most surveys, this information on weighing the pregnant woman was collected for only the most recent birth (ANCAREWT_01). Surveys in which the data were collected for additional births are noted in the comparability section.
